Lightning Is the Only Way

'Let's see. I need the Medium Pure Law, the Soft Pure Law, all the Mixed Elements, the Body Growth Laws, the Body Composition Laws, and the element-neutral Major Laws of Heat and Cold,' Gravis thought.

'The Mixed Elements should be my lowest priority. All these Battle Laws for my Elements only work with the pure forms of the Elements. If I want to boost my Mixed Elements as well, I would need to comprehend the Mixed Elemental Battle Laws. However, Mixed Elements are already pretty rare. There are barely any Law Comprehension Areas for these Battle Laws.'

'Sure, understanding the Composition Laws of the Mixed Elements is not hard, and I can do that myself, but extrapolating all these Battle Laws would take forever.'

'Of course, if I could understand all the Mixed Elements and then understand the Mixed Elemental Law, my Battle-Strength would become insane. The Mixed Elemental Law is a level five Law that would passively boost the power of all my Elements to the power of a level five Law. That's insane.'

'However, that's exactly the problem. It's a level five Law. I haven't comprehended one of those, and I'm absolutely certain that I need some severe tempering to comprehend it. Comprehending the Major Law of the Elements has already taken me three tempering experiences. This one will probably take just as long.'

'Lastly, I would need to focus all my remaining time on these Mixed Elements. This means that I wouldn't be able to boost my Battle-Strength even more in the next 12,000 years or so.'

Gravis narrowed his eyes. 'Siral's eventual opponent is far too powerful. I absolutely need to increase my strength as much as possible until then.'

'So, Mixed Elements are a no-go,' Gravis thought.

'The Soft Pure and Medium Pure Laws would increase my Battle-Strength a little bit since I would be able to create even better armor. Against my eventual opponent, I need to go all out, which means that I will also create shields and armor, even though it's far too expensive. These Laws would help me in that, but I'm uncertain if that's the best way to proceed.'

'The Major Laws of Heat and Cold are pretty powerful, but the Laws of Inferno's Heat and Frost's Cold are just as powerful and cost the same amount of Energy normally. The only advantage that the element-neutral Laws of Heat and Cold have is that they don't need any specific Element to work.'

'Sadly, this advantage is useless to me since I can use all the Elements anyway.'

'So, the Major Laws of Cold and Heat won't increase my Battle-Strength at all.'

'That leaves the Body Laws,' Gravis thought as he scratched his chin. 'If I heal myself with Brilliance, I am using up my Energy. I convert my Energy into Life Energy, which then regrows my body.'
